Oda beats GB's Hewett in Wimbledon singles final
Great Britain's Alfie Hewett is beaten 6-1 6-1 by top seed Tokito Oda in the final of the men's wheelchair singles at Wimbledon.
Japan's Tokito Oda beat Great Britain's Alfie Hewett to claim his third Wimbledon men's wheelchair singles title.
Oda, the number one seed and defending champion, dominated Sunday's final on Court One to win 6-1 6-1.
It is a sixth successive Grand Slam singles title won by 20-year-old Oda, who is unbeaten at the four majors since his loss to Hewett in the 2025 Australian Open final.
Hewett won a seventh men's wheelchair doubles title at Wimbledon alongside fellow Briton Gordon Reid on Saturday but, for the second year in succession, he was beaten by Oda in the singles final at SW19.
Hewett struggled on serve for long spells, serving three double faults in his opening service game, six in the first set and 10 in all during the match.
Speaking on court after his loss, the 28-year-old - who won the singles crown in 2024 - said: "Right now, I'm extremely disappointed.
"I was on a high yesterday, it was an incredible match with Gordon and this match won't overshadow that performance.
"It's not the performance I wanted today, I don't think Tokito read the script. Congratulations to him and his team, that's three Grand Slams now [in 2026] so I know what his goal will be going into the US Open. Hopefully someone can stop him.
"He's a incredible player and demonstrated that again today, so massive congratulations."

Oda and Hewett have been the dominant forces in men's wheelchair singles in recent years, winning all 14 Grand Slam titles that have been contested since the start of 2023. Oda has won 10 of them, while Hewett has claimed the other four.
Oda, who also beat Hewett in the final of the 2024 Paralympics in Paris, has now drawn level with the Briton on 10 Grand Slam singles titles.
They are joint-second on the all-time list, both still well behind Shingo Kunieda's tally of 28.
Meanwhile, Niels Vink won a fourth successive quad singles title at Wimbledon, beating fellow Dutchman Sam Schroder 6-1 6-3 in the final.
